INT Course Descriptions
INT 498-01: Social Movements and Popular Protests
This course will provide students with an overview of the prominent theories of social movements and popular protest. These theories are designed to answer a series of questions about social movements: where they come from, how and why they last, how and why they end, under what circumstances they have an impact on politics and policy, and how they respond to efforts to repress them. We will also study a series of cases, including the American civil rights movement, European labor activism, anti-authoritarian protest in Africa and Latin America, and others.
INT 370-01: Graffiti & Social Movements
This course investigates the role of informal ephemeral public visual culture (graffiti, murals, posters, stickers, etc.) that are produced during moments of social, cultural, political movements, unrest, and revolution. Through intersectional transnational and Third World feminist perspectives, this course looks at the roles of these artifacts have in our understandings of gender, race, sexuality, nation, religion, class, and other categories of identity across different geographies such as the United States of America, Brasil, and Palestine, to name a few.
